1. Feeding equipment
Liquid feed animal trough is the main equipment in the pigsty. The suitable feeding trough should be selected according to the feeding from (mechanized feeding or artificial feeding). The general requirement is that it is simple, firm and compact in structure, easy to eat, wash and disinfect. The shape of the feeding tank must be designed reasonably, otherwise, it will affect the feeding of pigs. For limited feeding boars, pregnant sows and suckling sows, steel plate or cement tanks are generally used. These tanks are simple in structure and low in cost, but they need to be cleaned frequently.
2. Drinking water equipment
The common drinking water containers used in pig farms are duck-billed, nipple-shaped and environmentally friendly bowls, etc. But in actual use, the duck mouth type has the disadvantages of wasting water seriously and splashing around, aggravating the discharge capacity of piggery, relatively speaking, the cost of environmental friendly drinking bowls of nipple and stainless steel is higher, while nipple type spatter nozzle is more water saving, but more water saving is stainless steel environmental protection water bowl, designed according to the drinking habits of pigs. The environmental protection drinking bowl is deeper than the ordinary water bowl. The pig can see the water obviously, and the built-in silica gel nozzle of the water bowl can adjust the water volume, the outlet position of the nozzle is lower, and the pig arch can move out of the water nozzle. Only when the water in the water bowl reaches a certain level, the pig will go to the arch nozzle again, otherwise, the water will block the pig nose, so as to achieve the goal of water saving.
